To test the drive performance today we are using an Intel Core i7 990X Extreme Edition system.

Processor: Core i7 990X Extreme Edition @ 4.8ghz
Cooling: Corsair H100 Liquid Cooler
Motherboard: Asus Rampage III Black Edition
Chassis: Lian Li X2000F
Power Supply: ADATA 1200W
Memory: (6 x 4GB) 24GB Visiontek DDR3 1866mhz (10-10-10-24)
Storage: Memoright 240GB SSD & 2TB Samsung storage drive
Monitors: Dell U3011

We perform each test multiple times to ensure that abnormalities don't enter into the test results.

First we copied a folder containing 12 MKV files, totaling 8GB in size. We copied them to and from each of the drives via an internal sata based Memoright 240GB SSD.

We recorded 179 MB/s when reading from the ADATA N005 Pro flash drive which is a new record in our testing. Write speeds aren't as impressive, averaging around 89 MB/s.

Next we copied a folder with many mixed files, ranging in size from simple text based Word documents to several 100 MB video files. The folder size is 1GB. We record the average time taken then work out the speeds of the drives. Again we copy via an internal sata based Memoright 240GB SSD.

We noticed with a mixed file size folder that write performance suffered significantly, dropping to 35 MB/s with read performance around 97 MB/s.
